Careers

Dietitians play a vital role in improving health outcomes for individuals and communities. Dietitians work in many settings, for example in a hospital, outpatient clinics, community settings, the sports industry and the media.

Currently, 4% of posts for registered dietitians are unfilled. As both government and the public become much more aware of the role of nutrition in health, employment opportunities are growing and becoming more diverse.
